Xbox 360 Fanboy

First day purchase for me. I apparently like games that "blow".

Apparently you do, becuase this does blow.

I've heard mixed reviews on the game from a couple people I know, so I guess I'll have to play the demo sometime.

Do you think the game "blows" based on what Epic has done to them or would the game have sucked either way?

Too bad saying something "blows" blows. Blow... BLOW.

The third time through the demo, using different classes and getting involved with the story, has changed my initial perception that the game blows to, "Hey, this game could be an epic CO-OP game".

Thanks for the ONE WORD review people, it was EXTREMELY HELPFUL.

The comment OP blows.

It's 99 nights meets Mass Effect meets...um...Dynasty Warriors. With coop play, crazy upgrades and badass graphics (as in AMAZING graphics, especially in some of the bosses.)

Also, my favorite games are Halo, Blitz and Wik: Fable of Souls, none of which are ANYTHING like this game. That says a lot for it.

I don't think there's any layers here, maybe there is lawyers?

Shoooo don't mention those. :)

Na, I reckon this is to generate more exposure for the game which they hope will mean more sales...

PC engine ≠ Xbox 360 engine, doofus. They missed their own promised release window by 6 months pushing back Too Human, which Silicon Knights had already paid license fees on in advance. Afterward, Epic tacked on additional fees and provided no implementation on it.

It was the dev equivalent of a shovelware dump and if you gays had gotten software like that, you would bitch non-stop.

I think, whether it's fair or not, more people dislike Denis Dyack than Too Human... and, unfortunately, that gets projected on the game.

The odd thing about it is that the things that are "bad" about this game were also true of Eternal Darkness... but there is a large group of people who are quick to defend that. Short game length, odd animation, weird character faces, some great looking areas complemented with some awful ones, super repetitive enemies, odd and overhyped combat system, etc.

So I imagine there will be a large group of people that Too Human also appeals to as well. I'm sure those people will find plenty to like here. Personally, I'm just planning on renting this game (I was initially planning on buying it, but the demo changed my mind).

I guess my point is the same as yours lol. I don't understand some of it either, but I think as time goes on I think it'll wind up balancing out like it did with ED. Some like it, some don't and that's kind of the end of that one.

I compltely agree. I was so excited for this game when I heard about it - Co op play? Yes, please!

But the demo made me question that and then some. The camera angles felt unintuitive, the graphics blew me away, but the WRONG direction. The cut scenes LOOK like they were from Eternal Darkness. After seeing what Gears (a 3 year old game) and Mass Effect have done with scope, story and graphics, this game needs to have a hell of a lot going for its gameplay mechanics, graphics and story.

I might have gotten past the iffy cutscene graphics if the gameplay and camera were more polished - but it just felt... "off"

Maybe I'll give it a rent, but I sure won't go out and run to buy it.
